DEAR SINGAPORE LAW ENTHUSIAST,
Before you find out more details about the remaining mindmaps, why
should you bother about it when you can actually study the material
yourself. Yes, you're right. You can always start from scatch. Compare
someone who already have an idea of the chapter beforehand and someone
who is learning the material from scratch, who has a higher chance of
success? I believe you will pick the first person. There's nothing
wrong with reading the book. In fact it is essential to have the book.
But wouldn't the amount of time spend reading the book be drastically
reduced when you know which salient points to focus on?
If you're smart, you've probably bought yourself a second-hand book,
like myself, with plenty of highlighted notes. The question is after
reading the chapter at one glance, does it give you a "Yes I got it!"
or "What the hell is that sentence trying to convey?" response. If
your first response is the latter, it means you've to reread that
segment again and takes up your precious time.
I must admit that books passed down from seniors, which are
decorated with hand-scribbed notes do make my studying easy as
compared to reading a brand new book. But these second-hand books are
simply insufficient. I need an overview of the whole chapter to focus
on the important points. Reading the book without an overview is
equivalent to venturing into Amazon forest without a local Amazon
trekking map. So are these mindmaps suppose to take over the textbook?
The answer is NO! An Amazon forest map doesn't cover everything you
will expect in the Amazon forest. If the opposite is true, I can tell
the whole world I cover the entire globe in one day just by reading
the map. What these mindmaps does is
TO PROVIDE YOU A BIRD-EYE VIEW OF SINGAPORE BUSINESS LAW AND TO
HIGHLIGHT THE IMPORTANT CLAUSES THAT YOU SHOULD REMEMBER.
Mindmaps also serves as a compliment to your Singapore Business Law
textbook, much like health supplements aid in recovering your body
after exercises besides eating your 3 meals/day. In assessing law
cases, it is all about going through the rules to determine if the
facts of the case fulfill the rules as stated in that ever-evovling
lawbook. When in comes to exam, you only have a limited time to
complete the paper. You need to know the concepts at your fingertips.
If you, like myself, belong to the group of people who slam the
'panic-alarm' button anytime, the more important it is for you to have
a solid foundation on the concepts.
Who am I and what qualifies me to tell you that this is what you
need? Having ride through rough journey of business law, it can be a
difficult subject when English is not your cup of tea. You don't have
to prick finger on the nail to know that it is painful when the
seniors have already shared their experience. If you're new to
business law and you find it easy to study, do let me know. I want to
interview you personally on video and broadcast live to business
students on how you make studying business law like spreading peanut
butter on bread.
Being in the sales line for more than 2 years, I've sealed more than
a hundred contracts. Never did I realise how important is the the word
"consideration" in the contract before I study business law. Are the
advertisements you saw on papers, legally binding or are they
"invitations to treat"? After studying business law, it increases my
awareness of the fine print. You never know one of these days, your
client might question you on a particular term in the contract. Of
course, you can say "For this, I'll check it up and get back to you".
Wouldn't it be more impressive if you say, "Having studying business
law from xxx university, this statement fall under the category of xxx
and has the following legal consequences should anyone break the
rules" If you've a mega-memory, you can quote the law cases to
substantiate with explanation. Your client will be dumbfounded and you
score extra points.
If you're in business, time is more important than the money. Time
can be exchanged for money, but money cannot exchange for the time
your already spent. Anything that shorten your time in getting the
relevant knowledge you need in achieving your dream is always a worth
considering for investment. In this era, information changes very
fast. In order to appreciate such updated information, you need to
have a solid grounding on the basic concepts, which have been fully
conceptualized in the mindmaps. You do not want to lose your business
just because you sign a contract that contains an exemption clause
that is to your disadvantage. Laws changes, e.g. a new ruling might
make your business run better.
Even after you completed studying the course on business law, these
mindmaps can serve as quick reference on certain clauses which you
might have forgotten. Is definitely faster and easier compared to
searching for it in the textbook.
Having hightlighted the importance of these mindmaps, (drumroll) let
me introduce
